Monte das Pedras- Private pool - Free Wifi

Monte das Pedras offers such spatial accommodation with a fabulous outdoor kitchen and relaxing area that it is hard not to use superlatives throughout the review. What also sets the home apart, is the brilliant hospitality offered by Angelina and Jaime. They pay attention to the small details in the home, garden and pool. They were extremely helpful and were the perfect hosts everybody wants on a family holiday - invisible but available - and oh so pleasant. We used the outdoor oven and made pizza in it. It was fun and successful, with some guidance on oven use from Jaime. The barbecue was perfect and, as the local supermarket offered prepared kebabs, fish etc, home preparation was minimal. A well stocked kitchen made life so much easier and the flexible outdoor seating worked perfectly for 6 adults. The dining table was a perfect size for our evenings of board games/cards. All the seats were comfortable and absolutely all the wonderful facilities made for a perfect stay. Thank you to Angelina and Jaime for everything. We wish you every success and much happiness.

We had most wonderful holiday in beautiful place. Pictures in advert are great but in reality the villa is even better. The villa welcomes you with 3 beautiful bedrooms which are very spacious with comfortable beds, lots of storage space. Cosy living room offers you relaxation space by fireplace or on sofa with a book. Fantastic kitchen is well equipped with anything you need to prepare your meals. The pantry offers additional storage and hosts washing machine, which is a nice add-on if you stay longer and need to refresh your clothes. Outside villa is well kept with beautiful flowers, and palm trees as well decorated with local stones - where the name of villa takes it origin from - Monte das Pedras. Patio area is fantastic - you'll want to spend most of your time here - you can cook on BBQ, eat, lounge on sofa or hammock or just simply sun tan or dip in the swimming pool. The villa is spotless clean, modern decorated with a touch of local tradition - simply beautiful. Location was perfect for what we wanted on holiday - quiet, idyllic village bursting with local folklore and friendly people. There's lots to do and visit in the area, but if you have a car - the motorway gives you opportunity to explore even more. We would like to thank you Jamie, Angelina and Mariana for your fantastic hosting, help and recommendations where to visit. Thank you, dziekujemy, obrigado!

Very clean place, well decorated. Has everything you could need in the kitchen. Sitting by the fire at night is very relaxing! Angelina was super helpful and always available to help if needed. Can't recommend this place enough! Only small drawbacks I can think of (which weren't enough to give it less than 5 stars): - Can take a while to get hot water (like 5 minutes) and a few times during the shower, it did get colder for a minute before becoming hot again (even though nobody else used water in the house). Note that we were there in December. Probably a non issue in the summer. - The parking place is just by their dog. The dog is super friendly but if you're afraid of dogs, you might want to arrange something with Angelina before your arrival (maybe park on the street? Front door to the house isn't near the dog).

Lovely place and lovely hosts! We spent a week in the pretty house and everything was perfectly prepared by Angelina and her daughter. Their warm welcome made us feel like home. The house offers enough space for several people and the garden is ideal to relax, have dinner or breakfast in the morning sun on the amazing rustic porch. The kitchen is well equipped with anything you need to prepare nice meals. There is also a lot of helpful info material on the area around the house and the beautiful fluvial beaches. Definitely a place to enjoy Portugal's backcountry and still be close to many exciting places to visit. Thanks a lot to Mariana, Angelina and Jaime for that beautiful stay!
